In 81-82, we all know that Gretzky had the most amazing offensive year in history with 92 goals and 212 points. After that season, he signed a contract with then Oilers owner Peter Pocklington that made him the highest paid player in the league. What was the length and total value of that contract??

Be my guest to add questions, let's just try to keep one at a time going.

As for where "Hat Trick" came from?? I have no idea. As a guess, players may have thought it was a magically thing to score three goals in a game. Kinda like "pulling a rabbit out of a hat." Hence, "Hat Trick??"

The name caught on in hockey when a Toronto hat maker would hand out hats to Leafs players who scored 3 goals in a game. It's unknown whether he picked up the idea from cricket, but the term did originate in cricket.

Alright, here's the latest question from the 80's. I don't expect too many people to know this at all, but there was a player from Philadelphia is 81-82 that was fines $200 for "attempting to kick an opponent." Who was he?? And for the second part of that question, a team mate in Philly was suspended for 5 games and fines $500. What infraction did he commit to get suspended??
